Not An Angel Lyrics – Tems
Not An Angel Song Lyrics
[Intro: Tems]
Ah yiy (Ah, yeah)
Uh-uh, nah, nah (Ah-ah)
Ah, yeah
[Verse 1: Tems]
I was a loner when I was with you
I would've given myself for you
Now I’m changing over, I'm movin’ on now
No turning back, I can't be with you
[Pre-Chorus: Tems]
I don't need you looking for me (Hey, hey)
All you did was give me nothin', oh nah
Overthinking every morning (Mornin’), oh
Take me out your life, life
[Chorus: Tems]
’Cause I'm not an angel
I’m just a girl that knows the truth
And I couldn't save you (Nah, nah)
You couldn't see what I've been through
I’ll cut my losses in peace
I don't need nothing else from you
'Cause I'm not angel (An angel, no)
I know I did all I could do
[Verse 2: Tems]
Don't say you love me
Baby, I don't need your lovin'
But I prefer, "I'm sorry"
All of a sudden you're asking for me
You know your love don't do nothing for mе
Right now we're not going nowherе
Other than a graveyard, baby
You know your love don't do nothing for me
[Pre-Chorus: Tems]
I don't need you looking for me (Hey, hey)
All you did was give me nothin', oh nah
Overthinking every morning (Mornin'), oh
Take me out your life, life, oh
[Chorus: Tems]
'Cause I'm not an angel
I'm just a girl that knows the truth
And I couldn't save you (Nah, nah)
You couldn't see what I've been through (Through)
[Bridge: Tems]
So many girls around you, 'round you
They always calling you, "Bae" ('Round you)
But they don't love you, love you, love you
Baby, they always come around ('Round you)
Always tryna call you, "Baby" ('Round you)
But they don't know you, know you, know you
[Outro: Tems]
'Cause I'm not an angel
I'm just a girl that knows the truth
And I couldn't save you
You couldn't see what I've been through
Not An Angel Lyrics Explained
"Not An Angel" by Tems, explores themes of self-discovery, independence, and the end of a relationship. Tems reflects on her past, expressing a sense of liberation from a toxic connection. The lyrics delve into the complexities of love, personal growth, and the realization that she is not an idealized figure but a person with her own truths and experiences.
[Verse 1]
In the opening verse, Tems describes her transformation and departure from a past relationship. She emphasizes that she was willing to sacrifice herself for the other person, but now she is moving forward without looking back. The lyrics convey a sense of empowerment and a decisive break from the past.
[Pre-Chorus]
Tems rejects the idea of being sought after or pursued by the person from her past. She reflects on the lack of reciprocity in the relationship, highlighting the emotional toll of receiving nothing in return. The mention of overthinking suggests the burden of contemplation and the decision to remove herself from that mental and emotional space.
[Chorus]
The chorus reinforces the message that Tems is not an angelic savior; she acknowledges her limitations. Despite her efforts, she couldn't save the other person, and they failed to understand her experiences. Cutting her losses and seeking peace, she declares independence, emphasizing that she doesn't require anything more from the relationship.
[Verse 2]
Tems asserts her independence further, stating that she doesn't need the love offered by the other person. The lyrics convey a sense of resilience as she rejects romantic gestures, preferring a sincere apology. The reference to a graveyard metaphorically implies the end of the relationship and the emotional weight it carried.
[Bridge]
The bridge introduces the presence of other girls around the person from her past. Tems acknowledges their attention but emphasizes that their expressions of love are superficial. The repeated mention of them not truly knowing the person suggests that these connections lack depth and genuine understanding.
[Outro]
In the outro, Tems reiterates that she is not an angel but a girl with her own truths. The inability to save the other person and the lack of comprehension about her experiences become poignant reminders of the complexities and challenges within the relationship.
